The life of the Oxfordshire town of Witney became dominated by the business of cloth and blanket making from the early 16th century; through many changes and varying fortunes, that trade was to continue until 2002. During those four hundred years many different types of blankets were made there in an astonishing array of sizes, weights, qualities, colours, patterns and uses. They also differed according to which blanket makers or firms produced them, what type of process they were made by and what the buyers' requirements were.
